AIXAM · AIXAM MEGA · Cars
As of 2026 Q1, 63 AIXAM MEGAs remain registered in the UK — one of the rarest cars in Britain on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 105 in 2014 Q3 — only 60% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 42 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 2 a year (2.9% of what's left), a pace that would halve the survivors by around 2050 if it held — though in practice the last, most-cherished examples tend to linger far longer. Tellingly, 97% are declared SORN — kept off the road in garages and barns rather than driven, the signature of a car being looked after rather than used up. In all, the AIXAM MEGA is rarer than 64% of the 2,429 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2026's endangered class.
